Antibiotic Resistance Gene Expression in Veterinary Probiotics: Two Sides of the Coin.
Review in Veterinary sciences, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
The rapid proliferation of antimicrobial resistance has emerged as one of the most pressing animal and public health challenges of our time. Probiotics, extensively employed in human and veterinary medicine, are instrumental in maintaining a balanced microbiome and mitigating its disruption during antibiotic therapy. While their numerous benefits are well documented, probiotics also present potential risks, notably the capacity to harbor antimicrobial resistance genes. This genetic reservoir could contribute to the emergence and spread of antimicrobial resistance by facilitating the horizontal transfer of resistance genes to pathogenic bacteria within the gut. This review critically examines the presence of antimicrobial resistance genes in commonly used probiotic strains, explores the underlying mechanisms of resistance, and provides a balanced analysis of the benefits and risks associated with their use. By addressing these dual aspects, this paper highlights the need for vigilant evaluation of probiotics to preserve their therapeutic potential while minimizing public health risks.
